Chabichou du Poitou by Artisanal Premium Cheese Review
Chabichou du Poitou is one of the older French cheeses. It has won name-protection (DOP), guaranteeing the authenticity of its origin. It is made in the very limited geographic area above the chalky soils of the threshold of Poitou, halfway between Paris and Bordeaux. The size of a wine tumbler, Chabichou has a crinkly skin and nice, dense, chalky paste that melts in the mouth. Firm and complex with a lingering, tangy finish, Chabichou pairs well with Pouilly-Fume, Sancerres and Muscadets from the region in addition to Sauvignon Blanc. One piece weighs approximately 6 ounces.
